We now support over 4,000 children each year, and demand continues to grow.
Raising funds though your business or workplace is a brilliant way to support local families and connect colleagues at the same time. We work with businesses of all sizes to make a meaningful difference for families across Brighton & Hove.
“They are beyond brilliant! The loveliest people to be around when volunteering. The company is amazing. The work they do, is beyond words. Truly opened my eyes and I would love to come back here!”– Ella from Wild Nutrition
Take part in team volunteering
Our Business Volunteering Programme is a brilliant team-building opportunity. It’s a chance to connect with your local community and understand first-hand what it means for families to go without the basics.
If your company offers paid volunteering as part of their Corporate Social Responsibility policy or you are part of a team who want to help a good cause, then we’d love to hear from you.
Our sessions are fun, satisfying, and productive. We provide a relaxed environment where you can bond as a team. We will work with you to ensure tasks are appropriate, we’ll brief you at the start of the day, and we will support you throughout your time with us.
To have an initial discussion and to book your volunteering days, please get in touch with us at evie@pelicanparcels.org.uk.
“The volunteering experience was really good, a nice tour at the beginning telling us about Pelican, the impact it makes and everyone’s roles. Then we got onto sorting and cleaning!”
– Tryfon from BUPA
Support us financially
The 4,000+ children and families we support are often experiencing hardship, poverty and isolation, often relying on food banks and council assistance and demand grows. By providing essential children’s and baby equipment, clothes, toys and books we hope families will have an improved quality of life. We want the families who receive items from us to feel like they are receiving a gift.
Businesses can make a huge difference by helping fund the items we buy new, covering delivery costs to families, or supporting our small team who coordinate more than 70 volunteers.
If your company can help fund our vital work by making a donation, matching your employees’ fundraising, payroll giving, or choosing us as your charity of the year, please contact us at fundraising@pelicanparcels.org.uk.
“Gave us an opportunity to be helpful seeing a physical contribution to an amazing charity’s ambition and impact”
– Harry from Close Brothers
In-kind stock donations
We’re always grateful to receive sample stock, excess inventory, shop soiled, or end of range stock. We also accept new items bought by individuals and donated to us. With our vast network of referral partners, we make sure that when you donate goods in-kind, they reach families in need.
If your business is looking to make a donation of excess, seasonal, or end of range stock, we’d love you to get in touch. If you know a company that may like to get involved, please put them in touch with us at fundraising@pelicanparcels.org.uk.
